Bug Description

Looking at my /var/log/upstart/whoopsie.log I saw the following. My wifi connection was disabled, however I had cellular and data connectivity. Notice that whoopsie just says that it is offline and cannot reach daisy.ubuntu.com, while it should indicate what the default route is and that it is a paid data plan.

[08:32:21] Cannot reach: https://daisy.ubuntu.com

[08:33:07] Not online; processing later (/var/crash/_usr_bin_mtp-server.32011.crash).

This appeared after I enabled my wifi connection.

[08:52:14] The default IPv4 route is: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/1
[08:52:14] Not a paid data plan: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/1

Well, come to find out I had no data connectivity on my cellular network, regardless I think whoopsie should be a bit more informative here.
